Parenting Tweets for All the Moms and Dads Out There Who Need a Break

Hey, moms and dads, how are you doing?

Does this never-ending lockdown and the learning-from-home thing have you at the end of your rope? Or are you dealing with it just fine?

Either way you look at it, parenting is a tough gig and moms and dads all over the place know that those little angels have a tendency to drive you up the wall…even when they put on their sweetest face.

Parents, we have a feeling that these tweets will look very familiar to you…let’s take a look.

1. Let’s stop playing the Guessing Game.

At least for a few hours, please?

2. It’s like Maximum Overdrive.

The machines are rising up against us!

3. He’s catching on really fast.

You’re doing a great job!

4. Thank you, Captain Obvious.

Smart kid, right there.

5. It’s not working.

Time to figure out a new technique.

6. What a cute name!

This is why you don’t let kids name ANYTHING.

7. Things are about to get LOUD.

You need to stop this before it starts.

8. It’s all going in there, baby!

It really doesn’t matter anymore.

9. It’s way too early to deal with you.

Come back in a few hours.

10. That sounds awesome!

Aren’t you having a blast?!?!

11. We are all this baby right now.

Oh, what a year it’s been…

12. A creepy whisper.

Just give him what he wants.

13. What kind of sandwich, though?

That makes all the difference.

Okay, moms and dads, now we want to hear from you. Yeah, you!

In the comments, please tell us how it’s going in your household right now.

Are your kids driving you nuts or are you currently involved in an uneasy truce?

We can’t wait to hear from you!

Hilarious Posts About the Many Joys of Having Kids or Something Like That

Have kids, they said…it’ll be fun, they said…were they right, though?

Well, here we are, parents, and what do you have to say for yourselves NOW?

Are you having fun? We kid, we kid…we know your kiddos are the light of your life, but still…you have to admit that they tend to drive you insane.

Especially during this pandemic when we’re all forced to be on top of each other 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Am I right, or am I right?

I think I’m right.

So why don’t you take a much-needed break, go to a quiet place, and enjoy these memes before the madness starts all over again…because we all know that it’s coming.

Vintage Parenting Photos That Would Probably Get Parents in Big Trouble If They Happened Today

I have three older siblings, so by the time my parents were raising me, they were less strict with me than they had been with all of them.

That’s a win for me!

Why?

Because I was allowed to get away with much more than they did and my parents weren’t as hung up on everything like they had been previously.

Parenting changes throughout the years and what one generation did is looked down upon by the next group of folks as dangerous and reckless.

We have a feeling that these old-school parenting photos would get these moms and dads in a whole lot of trouble if they were to happen today.

Let’s take a look…

1. That looks safe.

A girl and her bear.

My mother-in-law riding a bear at 2 years old from pics

2. Oh, boy…

Not good at all.

Back in the day. 1950s to be exact. Checkout that car seat. from pics

3. Have some fireworks.

Oh, the kid will be fine!

My dad showing off his parenting skills 1985 from OldSchoolCool

4. This is amazing!

And it was the NINETIES! We’re not talking about 1975 here…

Me back in 1991 just your typical Aussie kid drinking XXXXlight beer(I wasn’t aloud heavies back then) and holding a baby crocodile! from OldSchoolCool

5. What’s that smell?

Definitely in the 1970s.

California marijuana initiative rally 1972. That’s me in the box and my parents in the picture. from OldSchoolCool

6. Kicking back with a cigar.

And looking very cool.

Me again, 1958, relaxing after my bath with Toby, I was never again this cool from OldSchoolCool

7. That looks very dangerous.

It’s a loooooong way down.

My mother and grandmother demonstrating safety standards in the 1960s. from OldSchoolCool

8. Just a little sip.

Of the hard stuff!

13 y/o Dad having a taste while the grownups are busy playing cards; upstate New York, August 1954 from OldSchoolCool

9. The Tiger King.

Your mom is right about this one.

10. Get that kid a helmet!

This won’t end well.

A couple ice skating with their baby, 1937 from OldSchoolCool

11. Father and son.

Smoke ’em if you got ’em!

A photo of me dressed up as my Dad, with my Dad (1982) from OldSchoolCool

12. Have a drink on me, kid.

Bellied up to the bar.

Infant me, my mother & father at a bar because that’s how parents rolled in the early ’80s from OldSchoolCool

13. This is great.

Safety first!

The pinnacle of parenting: 1930s swimming lesson. from WTF

14. This is crazy!

What were they thinking?!?!

Car seat safety in 1958. Not strapped in to anything, these seats relied on the mother to put her arm out and stop the baby from falling forward. from OldSchoolCool

Okay, now we want to hear from you!

In the comments, tell us about the way you were raised.

Or tell us about how you’re raising your own kids these days.

We can’t wait to hear from you.

Thanks in advance!
